Staff are very friendly and accommodating especially with kids! (Very thankful to the receptionist and waiters that serve dinner). The hotel also felt very clean & modern. I can’t find a fault would definitely return. Also lots to do in the area for younger ones ☺️

When you're gone for 9 hours, 2 days in a row and return after 5 in the evening both days, you expect your room to have been cleaned. If you're expecting the level of service you've grown to expect from the Mercure brand, you will be left lacking. This is our 2nd stay, and both times left disappointed. We will not be returning again to this hotel for our biannual visit to family in the area.

Overall we enjoyed our stay and couldn't really fault anything but then it was only one night. The only niggle we had was paying £15 for 24 hours parking. We had four rooms at over £100 each so would expect this to be included seeing it was onsite parking.

We had a few issues with the room not being serviced, once and another time we arrived back at 5.15 and it hadn’t been done, so we had to wait 15 mins before we could get in the room also the breakfast wasn’t fully stocked and they had run out of fresh fruit salad with over an hour to go before it finished, Saturday was well stocked.

A truly wonderful hotel that is right on the seafront. Great attentive staff, especially at breakfast. Nothing is too much trouble, order eggs just how you like them. The one and only fault is the toaster...you can either have hot bread or burnt toast! The carpark is very tight and small for the size of the hotel, but we did manage to find a space for all 3 nights of our stay.

The food was good as was the room. Situation close to town and beach also good. Parking was limited and on a first come first serve basis. Management issues dogged our stay. One day the room wasn't serviced and at other times only late afternoon. We had to go to reception to collect supplies on 2 days. One day we had to go to the Ibis next door for a meal. We were told 55 mins before we were due to eat..so no time to book elsewhere. So,we had to make do with fast food whilst a party ( who we were told had booked 2 months previously, some 5 months after us) took over the fine food dining. Plenty of time then to have sorted things out. The Ibis also took 1 hour to deliver food and then starter and main at the same time - we were told after they had delivered it that they didn't have the facility to do otherwise? So not a good evening. One night at the Mercure my partner found a small piece of plastic on his plate. The waiter apologised...but the Manager didn't bother. It was only when we insisted on talking to him on the evening that we were being moved to the Ibis, that it emerged he had contacted the suppliers. If, they could get the staffing levels right, plan for large parties in advance, and have Management directing rather than firefighting this would be a really good choice.

Nice clean hotel, good location, lovely sea view. Buffett (hot & cold) breakfast was good plenty of options. Room nice but no windows that open in the room so concerned about what you’d do if a fire. You also have to pay extra to park in the underground car park £15 per night, which I feel is not clear when booking.

I had an amazing stay at this hotel. The room was exceptionally clean, which made for a very comfortable and pleasant experience. The staff was incredibly friendly and accommodating, always ready to assist with a smile. The highlight was definitely the outstanding view from the room—waking up to the stunning sea view was truly unforgettable. The bed was super comfy, ensuring restful nights, and the bathroom was modern and well-maintained. Overall, a fantastic stay, and I highly recommend this hotel for anyone looking for a peaceful, scenic getaway!

Room and hotel in general were excellent very big and comfortable bed. Don't attempt to order room service nobody seems to know what is on the menu or what the price is. The gentleman who brought our order didn't know the price and the receptionist at check out asked us how much it was. We would stay here again but we wouldn't attempt to use room service.

We had an adapted room for four nights. The room was very spacious. Housekeeping did not make up room one day, no explanation, as it was late when returned to room, we did not bother. Breakfast was very good. Drinks from bar reasonable. Parking was very limited and we were never able to park there . Overall a good hotel for wheelchair users with ramp access.
